Abstract
In a SAW device containing two or more longitudinal mode coupling type SAW elements connected in parallel, each SAW element includes at least three comb shaped electrode pairs and a reflector electrode provided at both sides of the comb shaped electrodes. One part of respective comb shaped electrode pairs forming IDT electrodes is connected together in common by a ground connection electrode and connected with a ground pad. This configuration enables the number of connection pads to be minimized, thus providing a SAW device that is small in size and superior in filter characteristics.
